lyrics

I met you and my heart skipped a measure
I realise it was high blood pressure
Now I’ve gotta stop wearing such tight leather

When you know you’re right
You’re full of Scorpio tonight
We’ll have a telephone fight
Over Horoscope tripe

I’m even quieter than I was before
Now that my phone don’t ring no more
I’ll be sure to get rid of your number

But you still have mine
I didn’t change the line
Remember our star signs
Never did align

We was having fun
Yeah we was having fun
We was having fun half the time

I wanna tell her I’ve got something to give her
I’ve never been much of a great gift giver
Now I know I’ve gotta take better care of my liver

I got my blood work back
Every one was out of whack
I gotta stay on track
Lately I’ve been slack

Colour me in and then cut me out
You’re wondering what I was about
It was my big nose and my big mouth

I’ve got a broken heart
Defibrillate to start
A floating shopping cart
In a waterpark
